The project sparked a global "Slow Film" movement with youth and multi-generational communities in Vietnam, India, Canada, Europe, Mexico, Japan, and many other locales (18 and counting) creating their own 16mm and Super 8 City Symphonies, not only shooting but processing (using both traditional and eco-friendly chemistry) and editing the films by hand, and presenting public exhibitions of the finished work in non-traditional venues. http://www.cityguideny.com/eventinfo.cfm?id=349150Anthology Film ArchivesAnthology Film Archives
